What Are Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Cookies are small text files that websites place on your device when you visit them. Think of them as digital breadcrumbs that help websites remember your preferences and improve your browsing experience. At BrainHaven, we use various tracking technologies including cookies, web beacons, and local storage to enhance how our financial forecasting platform serves you.

These technologies work behind the scenes to remember your login status, keep track of your dashboard preferences, and help us understand which features you find most valuable. We're transparent about this process because we believe you should know exactly how your data is being used when you interact with brainhaven.com.

Types of Tracking We Use

How Tracking Enhances Your Experience

The tracking technologies we employ directly improve your experience with BrainHaven's financial forecasting platform. When you customize your dashboard layout, cookies remember those preferences so you don't have to reconfigure everything each time you log in. This saves you time and creates a more efficient workflow.

Our analytical tracking also helps us identify trends in how financial professionals use our platform. This data drives product development decisions, ensuring we build features that actually solve real problems you encounter in your forecasting work.

Data Retention and Your Control Options

Different types of cookies have different lifespans on your device. Essential cookies typically expire when you close your browser, while preference cookies might last for several months to maintain your customized experience. Analytical data is aggregated and anonymized, with individual tracking points removed after 24 months.

If you choose to disable certain cookies, some features of BrainHaven may not function as smoothly. For instance, disabling functional cookies means you'll need to reset your dashboard preferences each time you visit. However, the core forecasting functionality will remain available regardless of your cookie settings.

Managing Your Browser Settings

Every major browser provides built-in tools for managing cookies and tracking preferences. In Chrome, you can access these settings through the Privacy and Security section. Firefox users can find cookie controls in the Privacy & Security tab of their preferences. Safari users can manage tracking through the Privacy section of Safari preferences.

You can choose to accept all cookies, reject all cookies, or be prompted each time a website wants to set a cookie. Many browsers also offer private or incognito modes that automatically delete cookies when you close the browser window. These settings give you granular control over your privacy while using BrainHaven.

We recommend reviewing your browser's help documentation for specific instructions on managing cookies, as the process varies slightly between different browsers and versions. The key is finding the balance between privacy and functionality that works best for your needs.

Third-Party Tracking and Integration

BrainHaven integrates with carefully selected third-party services to enhance our platform's capabilities. These include analytics providers that help us understand user behavior, security services that protect against fraud, and performance monitoring tools that ensure our forecasting calculations run smoothly.

Each third-party service operates under its own privacy policy, though we only partner with providers who maintain high data protection standards. These services may set their own cookies when you interact with integrated features on our platform. We regularly review these partnerships to ensure they align with our commitment to user privacy.
